Abstract (en)

[origin: US5812399A] PCT No. PCT/FR94/00754 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 21, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 21, 1995 PCT Filed Jun. 22, 1994 PCT Pub. No. WO95/00356 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 5, 1995A vehicle seat adjustment device includes adjustment mechanisms, reversible electric motors associated with the mechanisms, and a control device for the motors that are easily actuated by the user. The motors are of a variable speed type and a computation and memory device are provided in which relationships are recorded associating the various parameters that are to be adjusted, which preprogrammed relationships are determined as a function of ergonomical standards relating to the human body. Also provided are a device for detecting at each instant the value of each of said parameters, and the control device for making each detected real value of at least one of the parameters, or of a given variation therein correspond to excitation of the motor allocated to adjusting one of the other parameters, respectively to cause the value of the other parameter to move towards its value that satisfies the preprogrammed relationships or to vary in compliance with the relationships.
